Description Tom Lenz CLA 2007-10-31 08:39:19 EDT
Build ID:  I20071029-0010

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Set a breakpoint
2. With Annotation->Search Result-> vertical ruler checked
do a search that will give a result on the line where the breakpoint is. 
The breakpoint is not visible in a case like this.


More information:
Maybe the search arrows could be narrower, or placed further to the left. Or either the breakpoint or arrow could partially cover the line numbers. Ordinarily you wouldn't miss not being able to read a line number here or there.

I don't follow. Bug 80089 says "Mark occurrences annotations are not visible if located at the same line as the debug instruction pointer."

By "search result", I mean the yellow arrow in the vertical ruler. The Mark Occurrence annotations arrows are smaller and dark gray. By breakpoint, I mean a round blue dot. Isn't the "debug instruction pointer" the small blue arrow that shows the next line to be executed? When it occur on the same line as the search result pointer it is still visible because it's on top of the search result arrow, and the search result arrow is visible because it's larger and appears a bit further right. The debug instruction pointer and mark occurrence pointer are also each visible when they occur on the same line.
